Lavaido wants to ‘Love You Right’

Jamaica-born, Cayman-based dancehall artiste Lavaido is excited about his latest collaboration with up-and-coming artiste Renay Music.

The track, which is titled Love You Right, is Lavaido's first official release as a recording singjay and already he has been getting positive feedback.

Lavaido believes that love song collaborations in dancehall are necessary to preserve relationships. Unlike other genres however, few songs are released by dancehall acts talking about true love, rather than just sex. This idea was the chief inspiration when penning the lyrics to Love You Right, which was co-produced by the Primetime and Unstoppable Music labels.

"It's definitely a nice dancehall song with meaning that both men and women can relate to. It's a 'stay together forever' relationship vibe and fits into all occasions, even weddings," Lavaido explained. He also opined that it's a bit harder to excel as a new dancehall artiste while based in Grand Cayman, but he expressed belief that good-quality songs will transcend any geographical boundary.

"Cayman is not really a place that is known to break out new dancehall artistes, especially with such few local events. But the world is a super small space now, digitally, so real music fans will get to enjoy dancehall music from all over the world," Lavaido added.

Visuals for Love You Right are currently being finalised and should be shot in Jamaica this fall.
